Cucumber Sandwiches

For now, love yourself and enjoy this one ... 

The sun is shining and the weather is warming up. I'm ready for the spring and summer produce. These cucumber sandwiches are a great light lunch or snack for warmer weather. They can also be served with brunch or tea, Mother's Day or bridal showers. They're so fresh and delicious that you'll want to make them all summer!

P.S. If you are a cucumber grower and need a recipe to make use of your surplus, bookmark this page! Also, our Creamy Cucumber salad is delicious!

What is a cucumber sandwich?

We took cucumber sandwiches to a new level by adding a dilly-cream cheese spread that was tangy and dilly. Cream cheese with a herby taste pairs well with the fresh cucumber flavor for a perfect sandwich. They are usually made on a white soft bread to match the delicate flavor of these sandwiches, but it might be fun to try different kinds of bread!

How to serve cucumber sandwiches

They are perfect for spring and summer gatherings like Mother's Day, Easter, baby or bridal showers, graduation parties or brunches. Combine cucumber sandwiches with fresh summer dishes such as Summer Vegetable Pasta Salads, Lemon Cream Pies, Panzanella or Macaroni Salad.

What kind of cucumbers are best?

English cucumbers make the best cucumber sandwiches. They have softer, smaller seeds, and a skin that is thinner and softer. For more color variations in your cucumber sandwiches, you can peel or leave the skin intact. Peeling the skin off regular cucumbers is a must to avoid the hard skin contrasting with delicate sandwich.

What else can I add?

How to make cucumber sandwiches - step by step photos

Freeze the bread before slicing the sandwich. Place the bread slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet. For this recipe you'll need twelve slices, so it is best to do two layers. The bread should be frozen for at least an hour.

Start by spreading the cream cheese on the bread. Add one 8oz. Add one 8oz. block of cream cheese at room temperature to a large bowl. Also add 1/2 tsp. dried dill. 1/4 tsp. garlic powder. 1/4 tsp. freshly cracked pepper. One sliced green onion.

Whip all ingredients until well combined and cream cheese is spreadable.

It is not necessary to peel the cucumber (unless you are using English cucumber). Slice one cucumber thinly.

Remove two slices of toast from the freezer. Spread 1.5 Tbsp dilly cream spread on each slice from edge to end.

Place the cucumbers on one slice of bread. The cream cheese should face the cucumbers.

Bread should be frozen, but still mostly solid at this stage. This will make it easier to cut. Slice off the crusts and then divide the sandwich into 2 or 4 pieces.

Add a sprinkle dried dill and any cucumber slices that you may have leftover to the top as a garnish. Enjoy!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do organic foods have health benefits?

Even though organic foods might not be for everyone, there are some health benefits. There are certain health benefits to those who consume organic foods regularly.

Organic food does not contain artificial fertilizers or pesticides. It also doesn't contain fungicides. Organic produce is free from harmful chemicals that could cause harm to human health.

The use of additives in the processing process is also less common. So when you buy an organic product, you're likely eating healthier than non-organic products.

Research shows that organic produce contains more nutrients and antioxidants compared to conventionally grown fruit and vegetables.

Although organic farming methods tend to cost more than conventional farming methods, they often yield better results. Organic farming encourages soil fertility and biodiversity.

This helps prevent erosion and conserve water. Organic farms require less fuel and energy because they don't contain toxic chemicals.

Some people fear that organic foods can be more costly than conventional foods. However, prices can vary depending upon where you live. Organic apples, for example, are more expensive than regular apples.

However, organic fruit is more affordable if you compare the price of a basket of both types.

So should you go organic?

It depends on you. If you don't like the taste of organic food, then you probably shouldn't bother.

You can purchase organic food if it is delicious. Organic food is safer because organic produce is not grown by commercial growers who use pesticides and chemical fertilizers.

Organic agriculture protects our environment by conserving natural resources and promoting biodiversity.

Why should I choose organic?

The health risks of conventional agriculture include asthma, allergies and diabetes. It is important to make informed choices about food purchases.

The Environmental Working Group offers these tips:

As much as possible, purchase organic fruits or vegetables

USDA organic labels for meat, poultry eggs, milk and cheese as well butter and honey are recommended.

Avoid processed foods labelled "natural"/ "no additives."

Carefully review ingredient lists. It is possible to add an ingredient during processing if it isn't already listed.

Choose fresh meats over frozen or canned ones. Foods that are frozen or canned often have less nutritionally-rich ingredients, such as high fructosecorn syrup.

What is an organic food processor?

Organic food producers use organic methods to grow their products. These foods include fruits, vegetables and dairy products.

Organic food production happens on farms where crops have been naturally nurtured. This includes soil preparation, crop rotation, and pest management.

For an agricultural product to be considered organic, it must meet strict criteria set out by the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture).

These guidelines make it possible for consumers to have safe, healthy, and delicious food.

The benefits of eating organic range from lower levels of pesticide residues and heavy metal contamination to higher nutrient content and better flavour.

USDA Certified Organic products must be labeled with the seal "USDA certified organic".

This certification means that the product meets the standards laid down by the National Organic Program.

Organic food is not only healthier for us, but also protects our environment.

Organic farming techniques help preserve natural resources such as water and land. In addition, organic methods reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which cause climate change.

Organic agriculture uses fewer chemical inputs and pollutes less.

It also improves air quality because harmful gases like ammonia and nitrates are less likely to build up in the atmosphere.

There are many kinds of organic farming: permaculture, regenerative and conventional.

Conventional farming is the use of synthetic inputs like pesticides or fertilizers.

Regenerative farming includes compost, cover crops, as well as green manures that improve soil health. It also promotes biodiversity.

Agroecology focuses on sustainable relationships between people, plants, and animals.

Permaculture promotes self-sufficiency through the design of systems that mimic nature.

What's the difference?

Organic food is made without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farming practices promote soil health, water quality and animal welfare.

Inorganic foods are produced using chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and sewage effluent. Irradiated foods are treated with radiation; genetically modified organisms (GMO) are created through biological engineering techniques.

The term "natural", often used interchangeably to mean "organic," is frequently used. Natural does not always mean organic. Natural products can also be labeled with synthetic ingredients.

Organic produce is usually more nutritious that conventional produce. This is because organic soil contains fewer toxic chemicals and pesticides. Organic farmers don't use any artificial fertilizers, hormones or antibiotics.

Is organic produce healthy?

There are two types. Those we grow or those we get from someone else. Of course, there are exceptions to both categories, but for the most part, the answer to your question is yes. Organic food is healthier because it doesn't contain any harmful chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, preservatives, or genetically modified organisms (GMO).

In supermarkets all over North America, Europe Asia, Latin America, Latin America, and Africa, you can find organic food. Most grocery stores now carry organic food, making it easier for consumers to choose organic products.

Organic food is healthier and tastes better because it contains more vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients. Organics are also grown without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers, so they don't pollute our soils and water supplies.

Organic farming is regulated by the USDA. Farmers must follow strict guidelines to ensure safe eating. There are more than 30 million acres of US farmland that have been certified organic.

Organic food is often more affordable than conventional food. Consumers are paying less for the same amount of calories, protein, and nutrients. Organic farms can charge less for their crop because they aren’t required to buy expensive chemical inputs.

According to Environmental Working Group, organic food can be 10 percent cheaper per pound when compared to conventionally produced food. Switching to organic food is a smart move if you care about your health and that of your family.

Organic food is a popular choice to traditional American cuisines. It is often believed that organic food is exclusive to specialty markets and gourmet restaurants. Organic food can easily be found in any regular grocery store across the United States.

In recent years, organic food sales have been on the rise. In 2012, the US market value for organic food was $43 Billion. This is an increase of $21 Billion from 2007.

What are the benefits of organic fruits?

Organic foods are free of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. They contain more nutrients such vitamins A, C. E, and, in some cases, omega-3 oils. These ingredients are good for our bodies as well as the planet.

Organic foods are produced using sustainable agricultural practices that protect soil quality and promote biological diversity. They are free of harmful chemicals and sewage sludge.

While most consumers associate organics with produce, many organic products include dairy, meat, poultry, eggs, baked goods, personal care items, pet food, and household cleaning supplies.

The USDA defines "organic" as that crops being raised according to strict rules set forth by federal government standards. To grow these foods, farmers cannot use non-organic (or conventional) methods. However, they can use approved natural methods to control pests, like crop rotation and cover crops, or animal feed made of organic materials.

A farmer must also adhere to guidelines about how much fertilizer or pesticide he applies during the growing season. Also, he must rotate his fields between different crops. GMOs (genetically modified organisms), synthetic growth hormones and insecticides as well as synthetic fertilizers are prohibited by farmers.

The requirements for organic fruits and vegetables are met if they are labeled 100 percent organic. But not all farms will label their products 100% organic. That would confuse consumers. Instead, they will say that their product is "made with organic components". "

Statistics

• Once certified by the USDA, it can fall into one of four categories: "100 percent organic", "organic," "made with organic ingredients," or "made with less than 70 percent organic ingredients. (en.wikipedia.org)
• Popular clothing brands, like Patagonia, are labelled as organic by using 100 percent organic cotton for many of their styles. (en.wikipedia.org)
• When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
• Brands participating in this challenge are committed to using 100 percent sustainable cotton by 2025.[5] (en.wikipedia.org)

How To

Five Reasons to Purchase Organic Products

Organic food is grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. They do not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs), or radioactive ingredients. Their production processes do not include sewage or industrial solvents. The food's natural environment is protected from contamination during its growth cycle. It does not contain artificial preservatives or additives. It does not contain hormones or antibiotics. They are also produced in conditions that enable them to preserve their nutritional value, freshness, and quality for longer periods.

1. Health benefits. Organic produce contains less chemicals than nonorganic. This means it's less likely to cause allergies and sensitivities. It also means you're consuming fewer toxins and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Produce grown without pesticides and synthetic fertilizer requires very little water. Organic farms are often located far from areas with high levels of pollution because it takes so much energy for conventional agriculture to grow. This helps to reduce air pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies on soil fertility, rather than chemical fertilisers. This results in healthier soils and higher levels organic matter. Farmers should rotate crops and let the land go bare periodically to improve soil health. When farm animals eat only grasses and grains raised without any added hormones or antibiotics, they develop strong immune systems.
4. Taste. Traditional fruits and vegetables are often bland due to the fact that they are picked at peak ripeness and shipped long distances for grocery stores. Organic produce tastes sweeter and more rich because it was picked when it was still young.
5. Nutrition. GMOs and BPA are common in processed foods. You can avoid them by sticking with whole foods such meat, fish, eggs, seafood, seeds and beans, as well as fruits, veggies, herbs, and vegetables.
